It looks like some exciting weather ahead for the rest of this week. Although we can predict the future, we do know your learner has the day off from attending school today due to inclement weather. But this doesn’t mean they have to check out of learning. I spoke with all learners that there were expectation ahead if school was canceled, and we planned accordingly.
First, my website (http://legacyc109.weebly.com) is a place for both parent and child to keep up with what is happening in the classroom. I have been posting daily reflections on class and assignments in our class blog (C109 Connections), I have uploaded files for parents to help their learner with projects and homework, and a section for learners to access the many online resources we use. There is even a calendar of events and assignments to help us all stay vigilant in succeeding in 5th Grade.

- Learners should create a daily blog posts for each day we are out. They can be creative with their titles. This is a fun way for them to write and see what others are doing while we are in the midst of Snowmageddon 2014. Simply write a nice short paragraph about their day. With Snowmaggedon 2014 upon us learners will have a lot to write about. If learners want to post pictures they can too. This is only viewable by class participants.
